6 SAMPLE DIGEST Chapter 11: The Upbuilding of the Church I. Two Principal Aspects A. Two Principal Aspects: R-H & Christological Perspectives 1. Intro. The church also belongs to the central content of Paul s teaching. From a R-H point of view it has a fixed place in that work. It does not first come into view as a gathering of individual believers who have come to participate in the gift of Christ and the Holy Spirit. Rather, it has an a priori significance, namely, as the people that in his saving activity God has placed on his side and which he intends to be the exemplification of his grace and redemption. 2. Two Points of View: a. The church is the continuation and fulfillment of the historical people of God that in Abraham God chose to himself from all peoples and to which he bound himself by making the covenant and the promises. b. He gives his own form of expression to the real being and character of the church when he speaks of it as the body of Christ. 3. Both ways of viewing the church are indissolubly connected to each other, and together they constitute a unity. In the first the R-H aspect of the church predominates, and in the second the Christological. In both, however, the salvation given in Christ bears a corporate character, and is given and received only in the fellowship of the people chosen and called by God to himself and of the one body of Christ. B. Ekklesia 1. Through the early Christian use of ekklesia it may be taken as established that the Christian church is thereby ascribed the title of the Old Testament people of God. 2. If the concept of the ekklesia tou Theou has above all a R-H content and speaks of the church as the true people of God, the manifestation of the Messianic congregation of the great future, then it is clear that for Paul, not only in Ephesians and Colossians but in all his preaching, the thought of the universal church is primary and the local church, the house-church, and the church gathering can be denoted as ekklesia because the universal ekklesia is revealed and represented in them. 6 P a g e
